# The Timeline Slider

<figure><img src="/files/nXmm6GZbaguGbO9IJQNa" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The Timeline Slider provides an overview of the log data in time.&#x20;

* The grey marker represents the current analysis time. In a live log this will be all the way to the right to track the latest log position. You can move this slider to the left to see the information at a particular point in time. Slide back to the far right to track the logs live again
* The vertical marker represent a session boundary. This is where the device changed AP or betwen mobile / Wi-Fi

{% hint style="info" %}
Use the Timeline Slider to replay a log while watching the detailed data changing in the Live View (Top screen). It is often revealing to see the detail changing before a roam - look out for signal strength, data transfer and CCA levels leading up to roams.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
To get a good understanding of roaming decisions, use the Timeline Slider to replay a log while watching the roaming details in the Session Explorer. Can you see how roaming attempts start coming in as signal strength falls below a certain level.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://numerous-networks.gitbook.io/noversight-docs/noversight-tutorial/noversight-macos-analysis/noversight-wi-fi-analysis/the-timeline-slider.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
